The #PeruvianBooby, not to be confused with the #BlueFootedBooby (as they do look quite similar). The differences between the Blue-Footed and the Peruvian are the blue eyes and blue feet. The Peruvian is only in #Peru while the Blue-Footed can be found in nearby regions. #birdsoftheworld

A Peruvian Booby plunges after prey in Puerto Valparaiso, Valparaiso, Chile. A great way to kick off an odyssey across the South Pacific. I will disembark in Darwin, Australia, in early July.
